Jeux de peau
Description
Inspired by the odor of baking bread, Jeux de peau (“Skin Games”) is more redolent of buttered toast or brioche buns than of a plain baguette. This spicy-oriental-woody scent contains a number of facets. You’ll encounter a noticeable sandalwood note as well as a fruity-apricot accord, which, in entwined with sandalwood creates an almost coconut-like facet. You might also find a licorice effect or get a more floral impression. On the subject of ingredients, Serge Lutens isn’t revealing anything… or hardly. Rumor has it that the fragrance has wheat and rye extracts as well as other components like iris, frankincense and rockrose (cistus labdanum).

History
Despite its fairly classic, if somewhat enigmatic name, Jeux de peau is no ordinary fragrance. Inspired by Serge Lutens’ childhood memories, the fragrance calls to mind toast dripping with butter. The realm of bread baking is very present: toasted notes, grainy smells, sweet brioche notes and more. True to his avant-garde spirit, and never short on humor, the creator is proposing a totally new kind of gourmand scent. For him or her.

Bon, franchement, je ne sais pas ou se trouve l'odeur de pain chaud?????????????? Moi quand je le porte, il a quelque chose de goudronné. Sec. Les toutes premières notes sont celle du tabac roulé dans les "tabacalerias" Un parfum d'humeur, ne sent jamais vraiment pareil....Indéfinissable....................

J'ai entendu pleins de choses sur ce parfum là! Une femme m'a même dit qu'il lui évoquait... le restaurant chinois! Sans aller jusque là, j'aime beaucoup ses notes de céréales, de grillé et son fond lacté après quelques heures. Ce n'est pas un parfum que j'oserai porter tous les jours mais je me rappelle l'avoir beaucoup mis en prépa, les matins d'hiver. Son odeur me réconfortait alors qu'il faisait encore nuit et que la pluie martelait les carreaux de notre salle de classe... C'est un joli souvenir!

Serge Lutens Jeux de peau is a very unique gourmand fragrance. Notes of hazelnut, warm milk, caramel, and wheat dry down to warm woody spices. Created to elicit childhood memories of baking bread, Jeux de peau (translated to Play on skin) is the perfect scent to accompany a crisp autumn walk, leaves crunching underfoot.
